10 Great Python Resources for Aspiring Data Scientists - Predictive Analytics Times - machine learning & data science news

Python is one of the most widely used languages in data science, and an incredibly popular general programming language on its own. Many prospective data scientists are first faced with the issue of which programming language might be their choice when diving into data science. This is further complicated if you don't already bring a set of existing programming skills on which to rely. Even better would be a thorough understanding of Python as you shift to data science (substitute another language if it is to be your preferred data science programming tool), but many newcomers to the field find themselves either starting from relative scratch when it comes to either programming in general, or Python more specifically. This is a collection of 10 interesting resources in the form of articles and tutorials for the aspiring data scientist new to Python, meant to provide both insight and practical instruction when starting on your journey.
